Recently, David Perry, who was the opening presenter at the [a]list summit, announced that Gaikai is now available for Open Beta. 1,000 initial invites were followed with 10,000 invites, with no major hardware issues detected.

The game everyone is playing first is Mass Effect 2, it’s the highest rated PC game in the last 12 months and BioWare simply rocks. They’ve been very supportive as has Electronic Arts. The good news for them is we are getting a surprising amount of people clicking ‘BUY’ without even making them a special offer, wrote Perry. We are working with lots of publishers / retailers / media sites / electronics makers / telecom companies etc. We have at least 60 deals in the pipe at some stage. (You can imagine how nuts that is to manage.) Our team has been growing nicely and we have been making some strategic hires that you will hear about in the next few weeks.
